The following repo provides a boilerplate for projects intended to be written with Ionic 3 & Angular 5.
As there are many boilerplates for Ionic 3 and Angular 5 most of those didn't fit to my workflow as many bring little architecture and contextualization.
Building a professional app is a complex workflow in which developpers often interact with poly-environments parameters, dependencies management, tests and documentation.
The repo intends to fullfill the most common expectations found in the workflows to create a clone&go boilerplate as up-to-date as possible.
You need to install node first in order to be able to download the following dependencies :
Make sure you've installed docker first
docker-compose build . && docker-compose up front -d
It will run a ionic serve instruction on port 8100.
Even if there is no perfect folder structure, some recommandations exist about how to structure your project.
The repo brings the described structures and coding conventions, trying to stick as much as possible to the official recommendations.
Root level is described as following :
- src/ => Sources of the application
- test-config/ => Config files for environments handling
- package.json => Configure dependencies and npm run scripts
- tsconfig.json => TypeScript configuration
- ionic.config.json => Ionic configuration
- config.xml => Application configuration
- environments/ => Environment configuration
- config/ => Config folder containing main webpack configuration
- Test/ => Config for environments handling
Global structure is the following :
- _Components => Components for Angular
- _Models => Custom types and interfaces
- _TestData => Mocked data for tests & development
- _Services => Injectable classes for services like API requests
- _Pages => Pages containers for Ionic
Following good practices, the structure of an Angular component should be as follows :
- MyComponent
- MyComponent.component.ts => Component Class
- MyComponent.component.spec.ts => Unit tests
- MyComponent.component.e2e.ts => end-to-end tests
- MyComponent.component.scss => SASS/CSS styles
- MyComponent.component.html => HTML Template
Ionic pages classes should follow the same convention, however we will put here an additional file declaring an ngModule for page which will provide Ionic Modules & scoped Angular components.
- MyPage
- MyPage.page.ts => Component Class
- MyComponent.page.spec.ts => Unit tests
- MyComponent.page.e2e.ts => end-to-end tests
- MyComponent.page.scss => SASS/CSS styles
- MyComponent.page.html => HTML Template
- MyComponent.page.module.ts => Page Module

Environment variables for build configuration. Useful for handling different environment dependencies likes IPs or network URIs.
This repo comes with a functionnal travis configuration. When committing your work travis will try the following build :
- Cordova configuration
- Build creation for the ionic app
- Running unit tests
Like Travis CI use, this repo provides also a Circle CI configuration. It will run a similar build as the one you can find for Travis.
Angular service for accessing application storage. Useful for data caching, user auto-authentication and user parameters settings.
Angular service for network state. This service can be used to dispatch connectivity behaviors. Some other applications for service are request buffering and cache management.
Note that connectivity state is boolean.
Main App module has a built-in method to load a session. If a session key is found in storage, App module will check for connectivity and execute a resume from access authentication API class if connected.
useful for authentication based behaviours developments.
